Korah's Foolish Idea About Democracy
.
Korah started a rebellion
against Moses. He rallied 250 Israelites in an attempt to overthrow Moses. But
God was leading Moses, and God is a majority of One. The Korahs among us try to
convince us that we should embrace majority values such as sex outside of
marriage, homosexuality, transgenderism, and pornography. They appeal to our
selfishness and worldliness and claim to speak for God. They emphasize God’s
grace and ignore God’s purity, justice, and righteousness.

We
can learn a valuable lesson from Korah's rebellion in Numbers 16.
He
has a twisted view of democracy and God.
My husband has a sign on his
desk that reads, “Never confuse the will
of the majority with the will of God.”
Korah
made this mistake in Numbers 16 by starting a rebellion against Moses.
Even though God had proven
with signs and wonders that Moses was doing His will, Korah said, “The whole community is holy, every one of
them, and the LORD is with them.”
He
rallied 250 Israelites in an attempt to overthrow Moses.
But
God was leading Moses, and God is a majority of One.
Jude
talks about Korah as one example of those who spread false teachings in the
Church.
The
Korahs among us try to convince us that we should embrace majority values such
as sex outside of marriage, homosexuality, transgenderism, and pornography.
They
appeal to our selfishness and worldliness and claim to speak for God.
They
emphasize God’s grace and ignore God’s purity, justice, and righteousness.
Dear Christians, let’s only listen to teachers who represent the Majority of One.
Hi! I'm Gail
Burton Purath. I started Bible Love Notes to give people a minute of
Scriptural encouragement in their busy day.
I don't
have all the answers, but
since I
asked Christ to be my Lord and Savior in 1974, I've been learning from the One
Who has all the answers!
I'm still
a sinner, a learner, a student who falls down and disappoints God at times. But
it's my desire to grow closer to the Lord, day by day, minute by minute.
I need to be challenged, encouraged, corrected and comforted, and I think you do as well...so let's learn together about the love of God--a love that is so vast that we will always be discovering new and wonderful things about it.
